A Dynamic force of joy :-)
As a colourful and intelligent ball of energy, I promise to inspire and move (yes, move) you to see from new perspectives, encouraging you to feel excited for the opportunities that lie ahead. I'm most often asked to speak about creativity, fashion, wellbeing, movement and lifestyle insights, trends and ideas.
I deliver stories on stage, weaving together insights to inspire invention and kick-start a shift in thinking. If you want to challenge habits or provoke a shift in attitude, I'm your girl! We can learn, build skills, feel inspired, reframe our thinking and have fun.
Clients who also like something different include Bolia, LEGO, L'Oréal, Arla, Ørsted, Unilever, Formland, Vogue College, TedX, The Danish Dentists Association and Pej Gruppen: The Scandinavian Trend Institute.

Speaking at 3 Days of Design for Bolia, June 2024
Let's work together!
I'm asked to speak at conferences, festivals, trade fairs, brand events, department and club meetings, product launches, panels and seminars, for business and education, in the flesh and online... I do intimate gatherings of 6 and enormous events of 1000+. Nothing is too small or too big.
If nothing here feels right for your needs, we can co-create something bespoke, no problem! Just get in touch and let's chat :-)
